There is more than one way to say UMLER

UMLER FOCUS
• Restencil process - Best practice• EIN Historical Lineage• UMLER issues affecting Car Hire • UMLER Training – Restencil Demo
5
RESTENCIL PROCESS - BEST PRACTICE• Request confidential rights be sent via UMLER
system from previous car mark owner– Confidential Rights (built date, original cost)
Caution! You may have to change effective date when you accept confidential rights
– Reduces chance of wrong prior id being used– You keep the same car hire rate as the prior id– EIN (Equipment Identification Number) historical lineage– Conflicts are resolved before restenciling can be completed– Restencil process is completed before cars are deleted from UMLER
• Use restencil option in UMLER system– Uses data from confidential rights– Data is transferred from prior id
• Work with other roads– Request cars be added back in UMLER temporarily– Request confidential rights 6
EIN HISTORICAL LINEAGE
• EIN - Equipment Identification Number– Unique equipment identifier regardless of stenciled mark– Conflict due to Prior ID was never made active or a more recent EIN exists.– Work with Railinc customer service [email protected] – Remember goal is to have EIN Historical Lineage
• Car Hire Rates– Uses Prior ID to determine rate– If car is added/restenciled in UMLER in middle of month the rate will not show
in CHARM until following month– Remember goal is to have EIN Historical Lineage
7
UMLER ISSUES AFFECTING CAR HIRE• Ignoring conflicts – equipment subject to zero-rating in CHARM, restriction in
I/C and then deletion Question – Should claims be sent on cars zero rated due to conflicts
• Ignoring ticklers – examples: prior id has been changed to your car; Transportation Code X has been assigned to your Car
Issue - Wrong car hire rate applied after update• Grandfathered boxcars – boxcars owned by Class III exempt from
Deprescription Class III Sub 19 – if missing changes rate indicator from B to M; becomes
deprescribed; changes default rate If restenciled to Class I or II the default rate will be determined by default rate table
in effect unless it has prior car number in lineage If rebuilt it loses its status and becomes deprescribed car Lessee field – if updated to Class 1 rate indicator changes from B to M; becomes
deprescribed; changes default rate• Restencil process using add option verses restencil option – if prior car number
information is wrong (orig. cost, built date) or omitted it will affect default rate – request confidential rights
• Active/Inactive status – confusion on what car is moving – trace may show both cars – LCS issue
8
UMLER ISSUES AFFECTING CAR HIRE
• Deleting and re-adding car – may affect default rate; example: Grandfathered boxcar
• Deprescription – cars deleted from UMLER will show in CHARM file for 1 month; may send back errors if cars still show in your bid
• Pool codes added during month – Rule 22 counter reclaims – use Transaction Log
• No pool codes – car returns to home road in error; affects utilization• Pool codes dropped - short or long travel contact side bearings reported on flat
cars; car is restenciled• Over-aged cars – restricted in interchange
50 year car - the FIRST day of the month that the car becomes 50. Rule 88 rebuilt cars
40 year car - when the car achieves its 41st year. • If you think rates have changed contact [email protected] ; AAR will provide
letter to settle any errors• Register your name in Findusrail for contact information • ASLRRA UMLER Committee Representative – Jean Kincade, WSOR
